Hotel IP solutions

For any hotel and resort, guest satisfaction is a critical revenue driver. Guests today live a mobile lifestyle and they expect to stay connected when travelling. In addition to providing a remote office and home away from home, hotels also face the interrelated challenges of generating new revenue and optimizing operations. To meet the current and future expectations, an IP infrastructure keeps you prepared and ahead of competitors by offering guests content as they want it — via a VoIP phone, television screen or computer screen.

A typical hotel deployment contains seven components;

1) Network connection to Sanuk Systems managed services and Internet

The premises are connected to the Sanuk Systems backbone network via a dedicated fiber cable. The initial Internet bandwidth is normally 40 Mbps inbound and 10 Mbps outbound, and there is no limitation on usage. The upstream connection has a premium international access capacity at the international Internet connection point in Thailand (“Business quality”). In case of a temporary outage, access to Internet can automatically fail over to a mobile 3G/4G network for assigned devices. Fiber cable rental from Sanuk Systems point of presence, media converters, transceivers and access router are all included.

2) Wired and wireless local area network

The local network is provided as a managed service, including the necessary equipment, design, configuration and maintenance. We provide a service agreement that contains an active end-to-end monitoring of the complete solution, with normally business hour (8×5) service dispatch.

Premium Hollywood movies are uploaded in real time to the hotel TV service as soon as they are made available by the rights holders.

4) IP Hotel Telephone System
